Will I be rememberd POSTED AT 01:19 PM in Thoughts
Just recently, one of the long time members of staff at my school decided to move back to his home country. With his leaving, the school held a number of farewell dinners and there was the usual round of speeches and handshakes. However, what really stood out more than anything was how quickly he seemed to fade from our collective memory. His desk was soon cleared out and in a few days, it seemed as if he failed to exist. For many of us we like to think that we are all in disposable and that with out us the world would cease to exist…. But is that really the case…. Our time in the light is always so short and people tend to have such a short memory… And what was once today’s news quickly becomes history… I guess I am also reminded that I am also dispensable and that even though today I may feel that I have achieved something…. Tomorrow it will be quickly forgotten…. Add a Comment
